Surprise 4,000-mile ‘ice corridor’ found on Saturn’s moon Titan

Planetary scientists used a new analysis tool to spot a band of water ice stretching almost halfway around the circumference of the chilly world Read More

New polymer films conduct heat instead of trapping it

Polymers are usually the go-to material for thermal insulation. Think of a silicone oven mitt, or a Styrofoam coffee cup, both manufactured from polymer materials that are excellent at trapping heat Read More

Researchers want to link your genes and income—should they?

THE UK BIOBANK is the single largest public genetic repository in the world, with samples of the genetic blueprints of half a million Brits standing by for scientific study Read More

World-first experiment introducing atoms to one another may be key to next ‘quantum revolution’

Miniscule discoveries at the University of Otago could have massive implications on the world’s future technologies. Read More

Gravitational waves hint at detection of black hole eating star

Gravitational waves might have just delivered the first sighting of a black hole devouring a neutron star. If confirmed, this would be the first evidence of the existence of such binary systems Read More

The Hubble Space Telescope Has Just Found Solid Evidence of Interstellar Buckyballs

In the bewildering quagmire that is the gas between the stars, the Hubble Space Telescope has identified evidence of ionised buckminsterfullerene, the carbon molecule is known colloquially as “buckyballs” Read More

Scientists use graphene to create diode for cheaper and more durable fluorescent lamps

Researchers at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology succeeded in creating light-emitting diodes, or LEDs, on a graphene surface. Read More

The breakthrough device translates brain activity into speech

A state-of-the-art brain-machine interface created by UC San Francisco neuroscientists can generate natural-sounding synthetic speech by using brain activity to control a virtual vocal tract — an anatomically detailed computer simulation including the lips, jaw, tongue and larynx Read More
